It’s fair to say that on any given day we spew a fair amount of rubbish at you while reading these dreadful posts. Seriously?!? How masculine and tough are words like: Forgiveness, Patience, Mindfulness, Meaningful and Purpose? These timid words would be slashed to a bloody pulp during a knife fight with: Extreme, ELITE, Warrior, Tough and OMG!

The true mark of a spouse/friend/soul mate/bro is the keen ability to see the future, beyond our present circumstance. Each and every day we are bombarded by what is going on around us.

Breaking News: Your happiness is a choice that you make.

Peeps (even if you are in Manitoba), take a gander around you. Not later, right now! Let go of the world around and just “Be Yourself” in this moment (reading CultFit … JaJa pretty sad). Sit on the edge of the tub, look in the mirror and feel this brilliant, simple moment.

The words you mentioned in lines 3 and 4…I think of spiritual people – men and women. But even for a woman, these words can be too much! Too busy kicking ass (thank goodness I don’t need to do this every day, but still!)
